Time Trial Mode
Holding SELECT while choosing a course engages the Time Trial mode. In Time Trial mode, there are only two cars on the course. The first is your car. The second car is a pace car piloted by Racer X. If you're driving the Shooting Star, Speed Racer will pace you in his Mach 5. Car Select
At the beginning of a new game you can choose one of three Mach 5 variants. Finish a race in 1st place on each course, with Enemy Level set to Normal, to gain access to opponent race cars. More cars are hidden. Can you find them?
The Mach 5 Automatic-G offers balanced acceleration and grip, but sacrifices top speed. A good choice for beginners.
The Mach 5 Automatic-S achieves a higher top speed than that of the Automatic-G or the Manual variants, but it is more difficult to control.
The Mach 5 Manual also offers balanced acceleration and grip, but has a higher top speed than the Automatic-G.
